Paulownia is a soft hardwood native to China. It is currently being tree farmed in both the northern and southern hemispheres. The lumber can be air dried in 30 to 60 days in racks or kiln dried to 10% – 12% moisture in 24 to 48 hours!

It is about 2/3 weight of the lightest commercial wood grown in the US. It weighs an average of 14 to 19 lbs. per cubic foot. It is almost 1/3 the weight of Oak and half the weight of Pine.
